I believe the risk should be shouldered by the ones gaining the profit. Of course teabaggers think that should be shared by everybody.The oil and natural gas industries are capital intensive and filled with risk.
Liberals on the other hand have no concept of earned capital and could give a flying fuck about risk.
This has been portrayed as a boon for our country. Don't you think a claim like that should actually do something for Americans?What's so bad about requiring American steel to be used and the refined products to be sold here? Isn't that what repubs have been claiming all along? Why are they refusing to allow that to be put in the bill?As I've stated before, there are a myriad of amendments being attached to this bill. Attached, removed, amended, re-attached, redacted. Shit moves fast on The Hill. I've resigned myself to sit back and enjoy the show.Lets see....the Dems blocked a bill......That brings the score up to Dems one repubs about a million.So the Dems in the Senate are blocking the will of duly elected representatives in the House, blocking measures that would help American unemployment at no cost to the taxpayer. And this is OK because?

What next? Demand that car companies can only use American raw materials in their cars? Demand Gibson guitars who import raw materials to make their product only allow their guitars to be sold in America and no musician can take their guitar abroad?
How far do you want to take this? Why would you have these restrictions placed on a pipeline that's just going to fucking carry crude?
Keystone XL can't fucking do anything about your refineries. They are just a fucking pipeline.
I see, I thought you were talking about permanent jobs not the total over the 1 or 2 years it takes to build. I didn't see a guess on the number of permanent jobs. I didn't read the whole thing as it is late but that number sounds attractive until you realize that most of those jobs are certain to be gone in a couple of years. What good is a short-term job to America at large? Only with more permanent jobs do people buy houses and cars or send kids to college.Here's the actual State Department report. No spin. No bullshit. No left wing whacko lies.

Blame the Saudis for creating a huge oil glut. You expected them to stand by while their biggest customer tries to dump them? Seems a lot speculators did.Here's the actual State Department report. No spin. No bullshit. No left wing whacko lies.

Yes, it would create a lot of temporary jobs that would all be lost once the project is completed. Want to know what is about to happen in North Dakota in the next six months? I work in a field closely related to the oil industry. I also do much of my work in eastern Ohio and West Virginia. The oil industry is one of booms and busts, and we are heading toward a huge bust right now.
little more than just OPEC, but yeah.....them not slowing down production is why prices dropped.Blame the Saudis for creating a huge oil glut.

I never said temp jobs are bad. You were using the "jobs for Americans" argument and I took the hot air out of it. If Republicans valued jobs like this they would fund the numerous infrastructure jobs that would last a lot longer than two measly years. In fact it's the very argument that republicans use when voting down such projects as part of a stimulus package, the jobs are only temporary and not a permanent fix to the economy.Here's the actual State Department report.

Why bother building anything if construction jobs aren't worth a pinch of coon shit because they are "temporary"?
Why did anyone bother building the Hoover Dam? Why did anyone bother building the Golden Gate Bridge?
Do you understand how looney tunes it is to use the argument that construction jobs aren't worth jack shit because they are temporary?
And I'd love to see you tell a construction worker that he or she really doesn't count because their work is only temporary.
As to a down turn in oil production I have no doubt it will slow down right now for a spell given the current global situation but do people still use refined oil products?
Does the raw crude still need to get to market? The crudes coming to refineries in Canada and the US by pipeline, rail and transport no matter what.
No one is going to stop production.

The pipeline will pass. The democrats are just busy making out their list of what they want in return. Meanwhile 43,000 American jobs will collect dust in the wings. $3 billion that could be in American worker's pockets being held hostage by democrats. I hope voters remember that in 2016 -working class voters.
16,000 in the oil industry just lost their jobs last week alone, and you think this pipeline is going to create 43,000 new jobs. LOL
if by "duly elected" you mean elected by "the minority of the minority" then you would be correct carbon boi Voter turnout in 2014 was the lowest since WWII - The Washington PostSo the Dems in the Senate are blocking the will of duly elected representatives in the House, blocking measures that would help American unemployment at no cost to the taxpayer.

You dont know much about how pipelines work do you??So you are suggesting that tar sands oil of Western Canada is going to be mixed with North Dakota crude?I can imagine many US oil companies don't want to have a Canadian pipeline...
Wrong. The Keystone services domestic producers. The XL which is just a secondary northern leg would pick up crude from the Bakkens in Montana and North Dakota.
Democrats!
The NEW party of NO!
Get used to hearing it.......
